AMC Complete Cylinder Head with Cam, Mk4 BEW TDI

If your BEW's bottom end is still good but the head is done, this is the fastest way back on the road. It's a fully assembled head, valves, springs, and camshaft already installed, so you're not sourcing parts or paying machine shop hours to rebuild a core that may not even be salvageable.

Common reasons a BEW head fails:

• Cracked between valve seats or injector bores from an overheat
• Bent or dropped valves following a timing belt failure
• Worn cam or cam bearings. The pumpe-duse cam drives the injectors directly and carries real load, so a wiped cam is a known issue on high-mile or long-interval BEWs
• Warped deck surface from a blown head gasket or overheat event

In any of these cases, bolt this head on, set your timing, and you're done. It's a fraction of the cost and downtime of a full engine swap, and it skips the guesswork of diagnosing exactly which internal component failed on your old head.

Who this is for: a BEW owner with a good block and crank, but a head that's cracked, warped, or worn out, most often after a timing belt failure, an overheat, or high mileage on the original cam.
